Headquartered in Laurel, Maryland, Vytex produces a range of high-performance products, including its Georgetown, Fortis, and Potomac window lines and the Signature series of patio doors.
The company’s offerings are prized for their energy efficiency and competitive price points, and an impact-resistant product line addresses the needs of coastal homeowners.

The company has become known for combining quality craftsmanship with reliable delivery, traits that align with Graycliff Partners’ track record of investing in established manufacturing and value-added distribution businesses.
Under the new partnership, Graycliff and Vytex’s leadership team will pursue both organic growth initiatives and strategic acquisitions to broaden the company’s footprint. Plans include exploring new geographic markets, developing additional product lines, and strengthening distribution channels. This multi-pronged approach aims to accelerate Vytex’s revenue growth and solidify its position among top replacement window and patio door providers.
Vytex operates a modern production facility in Laurel, where advanced extrusion and fabrication equipment enable tight control over product quality and lead times. The company’s coastal impact-resistant line illustrates its ability to adapt to regional building codes and weather challenges, while its standard offerings continue to meet the energy-efficiency requirements that homeowners and local regulators demand.
